Meta said sharing open-sourcing AI tech within the US and to its allies will play a role in helping it preserve their “technological edge” over China and other competitors.
Social media and tech firm Meta has just opened up its artificial intelligence model Llama to the United States military and defense contractors for national security purposes.
Llama will be used to streamline complicated logistics and planning, track terrorist financing, and strengthen America’s cyber defenses, Meta’s president of global affairs Nick Clegg wrote in a Nov. 4 statement.
The firm will be partnering with Microsoft, Amazon, IBM, Oracle, Palantir and other tech heavyweights to offer full-scale services to the US government.
